Doctor ID Costa, of New York, to he Here
Next Tuesday.
Doctor Di Costa, of New York city, who
has won deserved fame by his efforts
in behalf of the fallen and debased classes
OF our cities, and by his eloquent and pow
erful advocacy OF social purity and reform,
has been engaged TO speak in Wheeling on
Tuesday evening next, in the interest of a
movement recently made to provide the
means for reaching and reforming the vie
tins OF vice in our midst, and for
protecting from vice those whose
condition or ignorance render them
dangerously liable to temptation and ruin.
1t il an object which should appeal to
every thoughtful person. The vast eX,
tent of immortality and social debdSement
in our city life is disgrace to our civil
lIatlon, aud no proper means should he
left untrjed to restrain and correct the
wrongs. DIR. Di Costa is a man of nation
al reputation, and noble and interesting
man. He should have large hearing. 1t
is certain that after his powerful preSenta-
ton of the facts and needs there will be a
new and deep interest in subject too
much neglected by Christian philan-
thrOpiStS.
